    June 5, 2007 at 11:26 am in reply to: 2 Walls to bounce particles in?

    I want to bounce particles on a room with 4 walls, floor and ceiling made of layers arranges in a cube in 3D space.
    3 walls + floor and no ceiling would do though…

    Since this is going on in 3D space I don’t see how a 2D mask can help?
    Maybe I am too short-minded but 3D masks would be the only way out I see…

    Don’t know about PP1.5 but with 2.0 it won’t read .VOB but it sure reads renamed .VOB.M2V files 99% of the time.

    Sounds bit like “Be water my friend” 🙂
    That would imply that you can draw 3D masks right?

    I thought that was not possible… I’ll try!
    Great thank you!

    If you’re able to copy the VOB files to you hard drive (which means it’s not copy protected or you’ve solved that) you just have to rename .VOB to .M2V and drop it into PPro 2. It’ll work very well for almost all VOB files.

    One last doubt though.

    This is a PAL project, if going to betacam directly should I render lower fields first instead of progressive?

    I’m also using footage which has been edited in After Effects and exported uncompressed progressive, should I change and rerender that too?

    Thank you.

    Hi mike, thank you for your reply.
    I think they feel Betacam is more reliable and there won’t be undesired jumps or jerky playback all too common on DVDs since they did not rule out DVD but rather recommended betacam.

    I understand it’s easy to go from DVD to Betacam, but that’s not my question. My question is: Is it a good idea or would I benefit from going directly from PPro to betacam? and if so how should I go about it?

    Should I output to some hi-quality codec and send them disk drive with the rendered output? What codec would you recommend?

    Thank you once again.

    No, doesn’t really work 🙂
    At least not without super-quality media which I can’t test for right now.

    Hey this works?
    This is what ULTRA does to do its magic chroma without blue/green screen???

    I have to try this…
